The least common multiple is a pretty simple process. We do this by writing down each number, and multiples of them, like this:
2 - 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
4 - 8, 12
6 - 12
Now the least common multiple is the first number that these sets share, which we see is 12, so that is the LCM (least common multiple) of these numbers.
18
The LCM is 24.
The answer is 42. 6 x 7 equals 42. 21 x 2 equals 42.
Since 4 is a multiple of 2, it is automatically the LCM.
Since 4 is a multiple of 2, it is automatically the LCM.
6
The LCM is 12.
The LCM is: 30
18
The LCM of 3, 6, 11 is 66.
The LCM is 24.
2 x 2 = 4 2 x 3 = 6 2 x 2 x 2 = 8 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24, the LCM
The answer is 42. 6 x 7 equals 42. 21 x 2 equals 42.
Yes.
Since 4 is a multiple of 2, it is automatically the LCM.
Since 4 is a multiple of 2, it is automatically the LCM.
LCM stands for lowest common multiple. So, it has to be the lowest integer multiple of both 2 and 4. So the LCM of 2 and 4 is 4 not 2.
